Congrats to my friend/colleague @EtheridgeRod who retires from @cbcnl today. We met in 2007 at the Cameron Inquiry. A dyed-in-the-wool journalist, Rod’s superpower is finding meaningful stories that hit the heart. He’s been a mentor to me and so many others. We’ll miss you Rod!!
With temps starting a warming trend, I removed some of the insulation wrapping on my backyard beehive. I took a quick peek through the observation window and am delighted with how great they look!!! What a treat to see these little beauties in March! #nlwx 🐝❤️
I never knew a simple mug could bring me so much joy. A spot of tea with a dollop of honey from my backyard hive is a great way to warm up on a bitterly cold day. ❤️🥶🐝
Very excited to announce that my debut novel, Closer By Sea, is now available for pre-order!

Well, this was a first … A honey bee buzzing around my head live on-air last night. The show director, Gary Locke, called it “take your bee to work day!” 😂🐝
Our two foster beagles escaped as we tried to bring them into Avalon Animal Centre on Logy Bay rd. one has a pink harness and both have collars with Beagle Paws’ number. They are sticking together but may be moving anywhere in the area.
Happy World Bee Day!! Here’s a flashback to 2018 when we were SHOCKED to discover honey bees inside our house. We moved the bees and comb into a backyard hive. My passion for beekeeping began that day. The bees are still thriving in our backyard 4 years later! #WorldBeeDay
My first day back from vacation is @AnthonyGermain’s last day hosting Here & Now. He begins a new chapter as host of @OnTheGoCBC tomorrow. End of an era. @a_brauweiler and I will miss you!!! Don’t be a stranger!!
His contribution to NL storytelling and the evolution of the film/tv industry is immeasurable. What a shocking loss. Condolences to all those who loved him.
